Chapter 14: The Hanged Ghost
Apologized?
Joan was stunned.
Sheng Xuan apologized for this?
Qiong also felt incredible, in her opinion, Sheng Xuanren should stare at herself with disdain, and coldly say "I don't know what to say".
But he actually apologized to himself sincerely!
Qiong Yi has two good things, one is that he has a good heart, and the other is that he is easy to coax.
Sheng Xuan complained about such a casual two sentences, and her anger had not disappeared much.
Joan also silently pinned her hand behind her back and said, "Actually, it's no wonder you...... Everyone says that cultivating the way of the sword, in order to kill demons and eliminate demons, sneaky people are mixed in it, and it is inevitable that people will be easily confused......"
Yang Xiaosi's eyes were about to pop out, why was the senior sister still angry one second ago, this Sheng Xuan complained and said sorry, and the next second the senior sister didn't blame him?
Sheng Xuan complained about Qiong Yi's words, and his eyebrows were slightly raised. He has been cultivating and practicing martial arts on Baiyu Mountain since he was a child, and he has very few contacts, let alone girls of the same age, Su Ye has always told him that the most difficult thing in the world to coax is except for crying babies, that is, girls who are angry, let him admit his mistake when necessary, give a gift, come and go, and the girl's family will be angry.
He thought: But this Lu Qiongyi's anger has dissipated too quickly.
"But I'm still not going to hunt ghosts with you." Joan also said.
"Okay." Sheng Xuan no longer insisted: "Let your junior brother come." ”
Lu Li was puzzled: "Me? ”
Sheng Xuan nodded resentfully: "Hmm." The ghosts in the forest have moved. Lu Xiyan, if you are afraid, go back and rest, and if you have other news, let your junior brother tell you. ”
He clearly knows very well that not all fears can be directly hardened into habits.
He also had fears, but after all, no one knew that he was protecting him.
Now, he can help others escape from fear, and he is saving his former self.
*
Lu Li followed Sheng Xuan's resentment and went to the important place in his mouth.
The two didn't walk for long, walked through the corridor is a neat small courtyard, although the time period of the beautiful trees and green onions, but there are autumn colors that complement each other, the courtyard is well-arranged, there are several Su family elders and masters sitting in the house, and there are a few students standing outside the house, all of them look frightened and ugly, and gather together to talk in a low voice.
Lu Li stood behind Sheng Xuanyan and looked at the group of people and asked, "Master Sheng, what's wrong with them?" ”
"Their tents were stolen."
Lu Li was confused, "Is it the white tent by the window?" ”
"Hmm." Sheng Xuan paused resentfully: "The white tents of several of them were all taken away. At first, I thought it was a disciple who did the evil deeds, but later, I found those white tents in the grove on the school grounds, and they were all torn into strips and hung on the trees, knotted with dead knots. ”
The white tent was torn into strips, and the knots hung like white silk.
After all, Lu Li is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and when he heard Sheng Xuan say this, he couldn't help but feel a chill behind his back, and his tone was quite empty: "It won't be...... That forest that my sister accidentally ran into that night, right? ”
Sheng Xuan nodded resentfully.
Lu Li patted his head: Fortunately, I didn't let my senior sister come over, this is really a very correct decision!
Sheng Xuan was a little sure in his heart, the ghost that Qiong Yi encountered that night, if it was the same one as the one that tore the white silk, it should be a hanged ghost, looking for a white silk suitable for him.
"So my sister ...... that night Is it really a living ghost? ”
"Mostly." Sheng Xuan's brows tightened, "Besides, the elder specially asked me to call her because someone saw that she was wandering around the woods around the school grounds before dawn today. ”
"Huh?" Lu Li vetoed: "This is impossible!" ”
"My sister... My sister said that she stayed at the inn last night and didn't sleep all night, how could anyone see her near the school grounds? ……”
"Junior Brother Lu, calm down." Sheng Xuan looked at Lu Li's pale and panicked face, and said, "That's why I didn't say anything about it in front of her just now." ”
"Young Master Sheng, you have to be responsible for saying this."
"I'm just passing the word, telling the truth."
"The matter...... Can't tell my senior sister about this, it's too weird, it's too weird......" Lu Li muttered to himself, "Could it be that in the rumors, the creature that died many years ago and turned into a ghost has been eyeing my senior sister?" ……”
Although Lu Li said this to himself, the two of them already knew it.
Sheng Xuan complained and didn't answer, and led Lu Li to walk towards the small courtyard house, and several masters in the house saw him leading people over, and said, "Sheng Xiaoshao." ”
Lu Li on the side secretly said in his heart: The masters are so polite!
Sheng Xuan shook his head and saluted back, "Gentlemen don't have to be like this, you are the teacher, and it is me who should salute." ”
"Sheng Xiaoshao is polite." For the young masters of a big clan like the Sheng family, even the masters who are lecturers have to give three points, they look around left and right, and their faces are puzzled: "Hey, why don't you see that girl?" I wonder if Young Master Sheng brought the girl who saw the evil spirit? ”
"She wasn't feeling well, so I let her go first."
Seeing that the masters were embarrassed, Sheng Xuan complained and said, "However, I know, she didn't see the ghost, but she heard the female voice crying." ”
The elder of the Su family, who was sitting in the deepest part of the room, opened his eyes when he heard this, and he asked Xiang Sheng Xuan, "Is this true?"
"That's true." Sheng Xuan shook his head and asked, "Elder, Sheng Hao doesn't understand this, I hope to give advice."
"Speak."
"Living souls are easy to worship and difficult to catch, but they exist with spirits, and ordinary people don't hear them unless they are psychic. The one who can do devil cry is a living ghost, and the living ghost is difficult to hide, this ghost can hide in the forest for a long time, and can steal at night without being discovered, there are many contradictions, it is difficult to distinguish. ”
The elder of the Su family chuckled: "Young Master Sheng has eliminated ghosts, right?" ”
"Teaching at home, responsibility. Although there are ghosts, there are not many. ”
"Little ghosts are easy to subdue, but hearts are difficult to descend." Elder Su twisted his beard, "This ghost is indeed a living ghost. He entered the Tao before his death, but after his death, he turned into a ghost but never did evil, hiding in the forest, silent for many years. In addition, this place is remote, so we have not removed it, and told the disciples not to stay in the forest for a long time. The current rebellion began when Lu Xiyan broke into the forest. After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "I guess with my masters that the sneaky mess must have something to do with Miss Lu... However, speculation is speculation after all, and the real reason is still unknown, so we have to wait until the ghost is ambushed to find out the truth. ”
Sheng Xuan resented thoughtfully: "Elder Xie instructs." After answering the thanks, I secretly thought: It is difficult to fall into the ghost...... Is it because Lu Qiong is also "afraid" of her too deeply?
Lu Li listened to the whole process on the sidelines, and only understood a general idea: the elder said that a big reason why this hanged ghost was in trouble was probably because of his senior sister.
Isn't that!
Senior sister cultivates swords and exercises, she is upright, she is a clear stream in any clan, she is still a person who is so afraid of ghosts, how can she lead ghosts to make trouble?
Nonsense, this old man of the Su family is definitely talking nonsense!
Lu Li thought indignantly in his heart.
Sheng Xuan's resentment was also trapped in his thoughts, and he was thinking out of his mind. The two of them thought about each other, and slowly walked out of the house, only to see Su Ye swaggering not far away, interrupting their thoughts: "Brother Sheng! I'm coming! ”
"This is ......" Su Ye glanced at Lu Li and recognized it directly: "It's Lu Xiyan's junior brother, named Lu Li?" We've seen it in the Binhong Pavilion, and we'll be glad to meet it. ”
"Little Master Su, I'm glad to meet." Lu Li replied.
"Come on, let's not talk about politeness first, is that sneaky sure it's a hanged ghost? There's a clue, no. Besides, the one on the sidelines of the school yard before sunrise today...... Is it really Lu Xiyan? ”
Sheng Xuanyan told him the conversation he had just had with the elder.
Su Ye's face was solemn after hearing this, and he said, "It's weird, it's weird, Brother Sheng, why don't you find someone to take care of the landing girl?" Listening to what you say, I feel like I'm going to eat her. ”
"Your senior sister can't be a cold physique, right?" Su Ye asked Lu Li.
Lu Li shook his head: "My senior sister's five elements belong to fire, and her yang energy is sufficient, which is not compatible with the yin and cold physique. ”
"That's it, you don't care what others saw this morning, go back and take care of your senior sister first, and we'll deal with this hanged ghost." Su Ye packed the ticket and said.
Lu Li nodded: "Okay." With that, he left the courtyard.
Sheng Xuanren pondered for a long time: "Perhaps, it is because of her special spirit...... was favored by the hanged ghost who cultivated the passage. ”
"Huh?" Su Ye was shocked: "You mean, that ghost will take her ......"
Sheng Xuan nodded resentfully.
"Saved." Su Ye said firmly: "Lu Xiyan, this girl is very lively and beautiful, not to mention that she also promised me that she would fight with me, so we have to do it." ”
For the Sheng family, who purified and exterminated ghosts, Sheng Xuanyan would not watch the evil ghosts harm people, he said, "Hmm. ”
Su Ye watched Sheng Xuanyan walk away, stunned in place, pondered for a moment in his heart, followed him in three or two steps, and called:
"Sheng Xuan's resentment."
Sheng Xuan complained that his tone was different, "What's the matter?" ”
"My sister is coming."
Sheng Xuan frowned slightly and looked at him puzzled.
"She wants to see you."
After a short break, the autumn rain is finely intertwined into a web, adding a few chills to the haze.
Sheng Xuanren took a deep breath: "Don't be kidding."
Su Ye couldn't read any emotion in his eyes, just like Gujing Wubo: "I'm not joking." But seeing that Sheng Xuanyan had been clenching his fists silently, he walked away by himself.
Of course he didn't want to see his sister, so he didn't want to.
"Sheng Xuan's resentment! Wait for me. Su Ye chased, "You can meet her." ”
“…… Why look for me? ”
The rain curtain is thicker, like thousands of needles falling to the ground, and it is so cold that it is piercing.
Su Ye froze in place, and both of them let the rain drench, leaving them wet and cold. After a long time, he said lightly, "If you don't want to, I'll let Sister Ah stop coming." ”
He couldn't see the person in front of him in trouble, or because of his own business.
The same is true of Sheng Xuan's resentment.
"Forget it, let Miss Su come to me." He exhaled a cloudy breath: "I also have something to say to her." Sheng Xuan resented and looked at Su Ye, Su Ye suddenly became cheerful when he heard what he said, and thought about what he said: "Then you have to talk more than your brain, don't say something excessive." If there's really anything you want to say and scold...... Talk to me! ”
After he finished speaking, he patted his chest vigorously.
Sheng Xuan never talked to Su Ye about the Su family and the Sheng family, he always felt that it was a shackle and an estrangement. No matter where he goes, the title of "Sheng Xiao Young Master" follows him, followed by the admiration of countless eyes, or disdain and contempt, which made him proud, and over time, he got used to it.
And Su Ye would never look at him like this, never.
